#bad game design

[lucarleigho]

modern game designers be like "oh we need to make our games realistic! we need realistic lighting! no conveniently placed light sources we need to immerse our players in darkness!" you fools. you absolute buffoons. i cannot see your shit game without cranking up my screen brightness all the way. i am bumping into walls and being assailed by unseen forces because YOU want me immersed in your blindfold simulator

Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Player's Handbook:

Each ability score is determined by random number generation. The referee has several methods of how this random number generation should be accomplished suggested to him or her in the DUNGEON MASTERS GUIDE. The Dungeon Master will inform you as to which method you may use to determine your character’s abilities.

What the fuck?

I really wish they made it easier to track the mini-bosses.

According to the game, I have two Stone Taluses left and I have no idea where they are. I have marked every area with a skull where I've killed a Talus. I've double-checked multiple times, there are no more.

Like, make the guy mark the map for me where I can find them or at least tell me in which general area of the map I have to search.

This is what it feels like playing against white in Standard right now.

Playing Minecraft again for the first time since the new update and

Why

Would you

Destroy

Any ease of travel

In a update

Which is all about travel

For context they removed the ability to take horses in boat? Why? Because screw you that's why. Okay apparently it's to make bedrock closer to java. But this makes the game horrible in the process.

Horses are the only way of going faster on land. Do they really expect you to tame a new one every land mass or have a led on you at all times?

I didn't have a led and I just wasted an hour pushing a horse with amazing stats I found across multiple oceans to get it back to base.

There's barely any good transport options as is why did anyone think this was a good idea?

Surely, I thought, maxed-out IVs can’t make too much of a difference. Six bottle caps later and,,, yeah. I was wrong. Man, adding bottle caps to max out IVs was almost as cool as it would have been for them to just remove IVs from the game entirely.

Don't forget to do your dailies. Yeah, report spam block is kind of annoying in this release of the Tumblr MMO, but it's important to keep the ecosystem clear.

MMORPG raid boss that debuffs you by forcing you to play a minigame while still doing regular raid mechanics. You get hit by a debuff and now in addition to healing the tanks you also have to play a round of Papers Please

Troll level design. When the string of balls gets close to the cat figurine, it's too late. The player shouldn't be forced to master ricocheting to get out of this situation.

So FF7 Rebirth is just a repetitive open world game with bad gameplay design and hundreds of unnecessary mini games that you have to get the highest possible result in for trophies, huh?

I’ve decided to post all of the progress here as well, not just on instagram. Some people have asked to be tagged once I post some progress, but I can’t remember who they were. So if you wanna see future progress, let me know and I’ll tag you!

This one may not look too different from the previous one, but nothing really turned out the way I intended to.

The colors, the textures, the focus, the sounds, the camera, everything just seems so off, and oh boy the animation… this is the result of rushing and not knowing what I’m doing, just inserting keyframes, tweaking the graph editor and hoping for the best. So maybe signing up for this project wasn’t a great idea after all lol. Plus the datapad’s not even fully textured, you can literally see where I started adding details on the front, then for some reason I just left off lol

One thing I’ll definitely work on in the future is the menu itself, because if this project is for a graphic design thesis, then I might as well try to make the only thing that has something to do with it look more presentable. I’ll definitely be changing up the fonts, and I have some other ideas for the background as well.

But for now, I’ll move on to the remaining 5 character menu animations. Originally there were gonna be 5, not 7. At first I was randomly picking out the characters I wanted to make one for, then I realized, it’d probably be best, if each squad got one animation. The 501st gets Rex, the 212th gets Cody, the CG gets Fox, the 104th gets Wolffe, and the 241st gets Tukk. CF99 got Hunter but I really wanted to make one for Tech as well, since modeling and texturing him took the longest 💀

Once all of that’s done, I can finally move on to animating the trailer video. Which I’m terrified of, but oh well lol
